Matt Cranwell, Managing Director of Stagecoach East Midlands, said “Christmas is one of the busiest times on our roads, and heavy traffic or long queues can quickly turn festive outings into stressful journeys. That’s why we’re encouraging people to take the bus this season for a more convenient, reliable and stress-free way to travel to and from town.
“Our staff work incredibly hard to keep services running smoothly throughout this exceptionally busy period, and we look forward to welcoming customers on board and helping them enjoy a more relaxed journey.”
